I had sleeve surgery June 26. I've been to the er or been admitted to the hospital.

First visit - Get sleeved

Week after pain. My pancreas, gallbladder, ans liver.

The next week shortness of breath. I had to get a blood transfusion.

All the other visits can't keep anything down. Er your levels are high. All we can do is give you meds.

My surgery doctor give me gallbladder meds.

He got all the reports from er visit. All er visits said my gallbladder needs to come out.

I don't regret getting the surgery. Things happen. My doctor wanted to avoid another surgery first. He thought the meds would help. After so long now....im just saying. Lets try something else.He's a cool doctor. We sat down and talked. He said he wants to get me better. We are moving forward. I had to share. Because its so important to trust God and yourself. I could have passed out with my low blood. I was told I was dehydrated ... When the er ran test my blood levels like below 7 really low. I needed blood right away. If I walked I was out of breath. My heart was pumping hard. It took me 45 mins to get ready.

You can always pay those extra hospital bills 5 dollars a month. Trust me they will work with you.

Sorry for errors on iv pain meds.

Don't give up. Listen to your body. Fight for yourself. My husband fought for me too.

Thanks for all the kind words. I have a upper gi test done in the morning.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
